# The court skill

When Claude agrees with everything you say, put your idea on trial in front of a jury of 12 Claudes.
One Claude Code skill. Free, MIT, no signup, no API key, nothing to connect.

Made by **Alex Chen** ([@nocodealex](https://instagram.com/nocodealex)), an AI creator who builds free Claude Code skills. Step-by-step guide at [chen.media](https://chen.media/guides/put-your-idea-on-trial-in-front-of-a-jury-of-12-claudes-how-to-install-the-free-skill).

Ask Claude "is this a good idea?" and it usually says yes. `/court` takes the same idea and runs a
trial instead:

1. A **prosecutor** Claude builds the strongest honest case that your idea fails as described.
2. A **defense** Claude builds the strongest honest case that it works.
3. Each side answers the other's points.
4. **12 jurors** read the record and vote GUILTY or NOT GUILTY on their own. Each one sees the case
   through different eyes: an accountant, a first-time customer, a competitor, a retired judge, a
   teenager, an engineer, a small-business owner, a statistician, a parent, an investor, a designer
   and a lawyer. No juror sees another's vote, so nobody can just go along with the room.
5. A **judge** Claude reads the verdict, the charges that stuck, what the defense got right, and the
   conditions for acquittal: the specific changes that would flip the most votes.
